Benefits of technology

[0014]An embodiment of the present invention is directed to a sanitary mask for hygienically protecting others that can be conveniently re-used and has a simple structure firmly maintained while the sanitary mask is used, so as to surely achieve the purpose of the sanitary mask, by molding the overall frame of plastics and improving the structure from a structure of preceding Korean Patent Application No. 10-2007-111003, which was filed by the inventor(s) of the present invention before the filing of the present patent application.

[0017]Referring to FIGS. 3 to 7, a sanitary mask 1 for hygienically protecting others manufactured in accordance with one embodiment of the present invention is molded of plastics in such a manner that the sanitary mask 1 blocks unsanitary substances provided by respiratory organs from spreading to and contaminating a clean object while exposing the respiratory organs including the mouth and nose of a user wearing the sanitary mask 1. The sanitary mask 1 molded of plastics includes a lower body 100 and a respiratory organ front cover 200. The lower body 100 is molded in a curved shape, i.e., a U shape, and includes supporters 120 to be hung by the ears of a user or to be wound around the back head of the user at the ends of both sides of the lower body 100. The respiratory organ front cover 200 is formed to be inclined upward from the upper portion of the front portion of the lower body 100 and cover the front portion around the respiratory organs of the user, e.g., the mouth and nose of the user, to thereby expose the respiratory organs of the user.

[0019]Herein, a chin rest 110 may be formed to be protruded on the internal surface of the front portion of the lower body 100 so that the chin of the user could be comfortably placed.

Problems solved by technology

When the person is a woman, the sanitary mask may be stained with cosmetics such as lipstick, which is quite troublesome.

Due to such problems, people involving in handling or distributing food, who are necessarily required to manage sanitation to hygienically protect others, tend to evade wearing a sanitary mask and thus it is difficult to manage sanitation.

When the instantly moldable material is used, the shape of the screen unit 13 is readily distorted even by small external impact and the appearances are damaged.
